Some #eim2019 process shots as Jen Ramirez and I keep plugging away at our Exhibition in Motion piece. It is really really gold 🤩🌼✨with sparkles mixed into our saffron yellow and gold powder coat, and metallic fabrics! Stay tuned! #wip #studio #exhibitioninmotion #exhibitioninmotion2019 #gold #powdercoat #sculpturetowear #artjewelry #ribbonflowers #waterjetcut #alumium #fabric #wip #workinprogress #process #snagmember
Friends don’t let friends make boring powder coating color choices!!! Thank you Jen Ramirez for all your help with this giant piece!!! I am so excited for this new work 😊🌸This Knapweed collar is waterjet cut in 16 g aluminum, powder coated with copper patina and neon pink from @powderbuythepound #newwork #sculpturetowear #artjewelry #wearart #waterjetcut #aluminum #powdercoat #knapweed #wildflowers #wearableart #contemporaryartjewelry #snagmember
The past two days of water jet cutting at @cwruthinkbox have been a blast!!! I have learned a ton with everyone’s help there, and can’t wait to go back! Now for filing, sanding, forming... stay tuned! Both pieces are 48” long, the first is a goldenrod, second are plants in a beech maple forest #wip #workinprogress #goldenrod #fieldtoforest #aluminum #waterjetcutting #searsthinkbox #thinkbox #cwruthinkbox #metalsmith #snagmember #newwork
Water jet cutting this CAD file for Jen and my #eim2019 piece! Getting ideas for it to become a new piece just on its own if I cut 2! hmmm 🤔 😊 #wip #rhino #vectordrawing #sculpturetowear #cad #goldenrod #wildflowers #staytuned
So much progress working with Jen Ramirez on our #eim2019 piece! We sewed, stuffed, quilted, and stitched shut 68 soft gold pieces that will be sandwiched between the top and bottom main pieces of our #snagconference2019 Exhibition in Motion piece! Zebby, Jen’s dog in photo 2, was such a good studio dog and somehow resisted chomping down on essentially a room full of stuffed dog toys 😂 #wip #progressshots #howitsmade #quilting #snagmember #exhibitioninmotion #gold #fabric #sculpturetowear #wearableart #staytuned
Reworking an old design, seeing what it might become! Originally cnc cut, now hand cutting and fussing! #artjewelry #wip #onthebench #sculpturetowear #aluminum #vectordrawing #plants #reworking #edits
More #eim2019 progress with Jen Ramirez... less shaky cam feel than my last video 😆... we have sewn up some panels for quilting, created big petal patterns to stuff and quilt and embroider... glued up all our brocades so they won’t fall apart when we cut them... not to mention the tons of leaves and flowers just waiting to embellish this thing... it is taking form! 🌼🌻🌼#exhibitioninmotion #mixedmedia #artjewelry #snagmember #gold #sculpturetowear #wip #whatarewemaking #staytuned
We’ve got some sparkle happening! Here is just a bit of #eim2019 progress with Jen Ramirez! Sewn ribbon flowers, crochet flowers, sewn ribbon leaves.... #snagmember #exhibitioninmotion #scuplturetiwear #newwork #wip #collaboration #gold #crochet #ribbonflowers #sparkle
